Stopped by Scott Tiemann's place today and he gave me some more history and old photos of the Z. One of the old owners used the car to pull his stock car to the track. Also got the found in the barn photos!!!

Air compresses, fuel or water does not. It either lost a head gasket and ate a cylinder full of coolant, or had a stuck needle and seat filled a cylinder with enough fuel- it fired on one cylinder came around and stopped on that one. Ran thru a car wash while running ???
I say OUCH either way!! ![]()

"Hydraulic'd?? "
We used to see that a lot with my friend's '63 FI Corvette. The fuel blocks on those units were the culprit and would leak fuel into a cylinder. When the engine fired quickly, (which didn't happen often)if the cylinder containing the fuel was on a compression stroke............ TROUBLE!
